Topic	The concept of "sin" is regressive.

As a result we can expect that cultures that eschew the divine, even if they attempt to maintain morality, will end up with a culture in which morality is frequently ignored or tossed aside in favor of personal gain or the enhancement of the power of the party. It's why these governments tend to intentionally stomp out any form of religion after all. If you have your populace believing something is wrong and answering to any form of higher power as well as being willing to die for said higher power instead of the government (and possibly in opposition to the government) combined with a religious leader who won't submit your population will see your government as immoral, evil, corrupt, and wrong and often resist if not outright rebel against your actions. Meanwhile a government that controls morality can simply legislate that what it does is correct or demand the religious leaders change the faith to accommodate their whims. This sounds like you're talking about countries that are already deeply corrupt and reject religion as that was used as a shield for other corrupt people to act immorally. They're corrupt shitholes, that's why they turn to shit. The religious leaders have already instilled in the people that there's no higher power determining right and wrong so they're effectively starting from scratch. Because these religious leaders are still abusing them, they're taught that definitely these people deserve to be killed so nobody determines killing is wrong. Effectively a revolution happens and people learn rules of war, not rules of civility. The athiestic uprising is inherently violent as it's raised on war, not peace. The corrupt shithole has to have time to settle to start reordering their law based on civil action, but because they've already established loose rules on killing, naturally feuds keep the fighting going. They're eternally fucked because their authority was already garbage, religion wasn't making them "good" --- Doctor Foxx posted... The demonizing of soy has a lot to do with xenophobic ideas. <cite>Kyuubi4269 posted [p:937783972] in The concep...
